Irregularity and an element of unpredictability characterizes this one-bedroom home of architect Joseph Giovannini. The whole renovation saw Giovannini angling walls, hanging 'deformed' cabinets and adding blocks of oddly-shaped blocks onto the walls. Plus, the Frenchman threw out conventional-looking furniture in favor of, well, not so conventional-looking ones. All these acts of non-conformism worked together to create a visual deception, making the 600 sqft apartment appear larger than it really is.

This is one fine example showing how eschewing the norm does produce wonderful results...
